These shoes are a great buy for anyone who needs a neutral cushion shoe with a soft, pillowy feel. I bought these after having my feet and gait analyzed and have been incredibly happy with them. They are fairly light for the amount of cushioning given and they have been perfect since my first run in them. I wouldn't recommend them for over pronators or supinators or anyone needing a motion control or stability shoe, but for a neutral cushion shoe, I'm extremely happy with them.

I recently ran a marathon in these shoes, and they held up well. I had to retire my old Asics half-way through my training, so I'd probably put about 100 miles on these before marathon day. I've never had any problems with blisters with any of my Asics, and these were no different. I did size up by 1/2 a size from what I usually wear, and it really was a great fit for running. The only problem I had with them was that the balls of my feet always got a little sore during runs longer than 18 miles. (This may be due to my running mechanics more than any fault of the shoe, though!)

I like my gel-cumulus 11 running shoes. This is my second purchase of gel cumulus running shoes. I like the new ones but prefer the old style. Still very supportive just not crazy about the tongue (short) or the material of the top of the shoe (loose weave).

I have very picky feet... high arches and in need of cushion. Having ramped up my running regimen this last year, I've struggled to find the right running shoe - durable, comfy, not over-the-top pricey. Asics have always performed well for me and this shoe has proven a life-saver. No pain, no rubbing spots, room for my arch supports, and typically I can find last years model (big whoop a color change) on sale. Highly recommend it!

I upgraded to these from my old Cumulus 10 shoes. I've only put 10 miles on these shoes but they are wonderful. They have fantastic cushioning throughout the entire shoe and are rather light weight. I do find the toe box to be a bit smaller in the Cumulus 11 than my Cumulus 10s, but it did not have a negative impact on my running.

Good shoes that support the neutral feet. They seem to hurt my toes a bit more than the cumulus 10.

I've been wearing this shoe for the last month or so and I like the lightness and simplicity. I used to wear the 21 series, but it has a lot more stability and control than I need for the level of exercise I'm doing (walking/running 2-5 miles). However, I will switch back to the 21 series when I start upping my mileage again. This shoe wouldn't cut it for training for a half marathon for me.

Absolutely love these shoes! The shoes fit great and feel great! I have been running with Nike shoes for the past year and hate them. Someone recommended Asics and I am hooked. Will never buy a different brand again!

As someone who's trained for half marathons and run numerous 5k's, I can state with confidence that Asics and Brooks are my two favorite choices for running shoes. It's definitely worth it to spend a little extra for a product that will help keep your feet, ankles, knees, and hips in good shape.

However, everyone's feet are different, and it's generally not wise to buy shoes until you know for certain whether you're an overpronator, underpronater, or neutral gait.

If you're really interested in putting in a lot of mileage, or doing 5k's, 10k's, or half-marathons, I'd highly suggest that you get your gait checked out by a specialty running store before springing for shoes on Amazon, and remember to replace your shoes every 300-500 miles.

I have ordered this shoe in 11 AA for at least the last 6 years in a row. It fits well and I never have to go through the pain of breaking it in. I will continue to buy this shoe at least once a year - and pray they never discontinue it. Great fit, decent price, happy customer. On a side note, I have a friend who buys the same shoe in a wide and she loves it as well.
